thanks for all the response jokes and all I have an 8N and I know it doesn't have a donut but i also have a TO20 that takes the same exhaust but it had a donut in it so I thought it needed one so thats why i am looking for a 1 1/2 donut BLW

I think the TO-20 takes the same exaust as the TO-30 does and that exaust is interchangeable with the Ford with no donut. Was thinking about putting the vertical exaust from the TO-30 I had and was hanging here in the shed on my 9N ford.

no donut.

as dean said if the exhaust is excessively deformed, then try this.. cleant he e/m mating lip with 80grit sand paper. hand fit the exhaust pipe lip to it, use a pallpeen hamemr and tap the lip to the e/m lip to get a better seal.. then reinstall the clamp instailling it correctly!! if it leaks past that, then use a soda pop can or tin flashing as seal and clamp that in over the joint.

some people use that chalky liquid-set muffler paste between a bent flange and the manifold especially if the manifold is eroded or pourous. I don't use it as it isn't really needed.. but you can if you want. won't hurt anything.. just make it harder for the next guy who replaces the muffler.

BLW.......as pointed out, the 8N does NOT use a donut to seal the exhaust joint. ...but... ya gotta JAMB the exhaust pipe up into the exhaust manifold. Use a board and a jack to JAMB the exhaust pipe. And take a GOOD LOOK at the 2-part exhaust clamp. It is OFF-SET. BIG SIDE DOWN. Understand??? .......Dell

They will not have one because they were never used, tapered end on pipe and manifold with a two piece clamp with a V type grove to clamp together and there is a top and bottom to that clamp that you do not realize untill you put it on and will not tighten up.
